Hannah’s road to recovery

We are Gr and Josie and our 13 year old daughter Hannah has been struggling with anorexia for several months now. We are to the point in treatment that she will be beginning a residential treatment program this coming Monday 1/9/2023 in St. Louis, MO to treat this disease.

She was diagnosed with the restricting type of anorexia in September of 2022 after a rapid significant weight loss. We have been doing outpatient treatment with a therapist and dietitian for over 3 months now trying to turn this around without much luck. We have finally been successful at getting the weight to stop coming off but unsuccessful at getting any weight restored, this is the reasoning for seeking a higher level of care now.

Being a teenager is hard enough but today there are so many added stressors with social media and body image being so in the spotlight, let alone adding being an active dancer and being in a leotard for classes almost everyday.

Any help would be greatly appreciated and will be used to help with all that has been already charged for services received to date plus the upcoming services she will be receiving in St. Louis in the coming weeks.
